✨ NAME ✨

ctucan_err_interrupt β€” the Error frame ISR, aka the lil function that handles CAN error interrupts. it's giving "I'm the one who reports the drama" πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void ctucan_err_interrupt (struct net_device *ndev , u32 isr );

that's it. that's the whole signature. no cap. ✨


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • ndev β€” a net_device pointer. yep, the classic. it's the network device we're working with πŸ’–
  • isr β€” the interrupt status register value, fr fr. this is the raw juicy intel we gotta decode πŸ‘‘

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this is the CAN error interrupt handler, periodt. what it does is: it checks the type of error, and then it forwards the error frame up to the upper layers 🫢
